Kristen Hadeed hadn't turned 30 and she was already the CEO of a successful company and well on her own leadership journey. Through her company – Student Maid, an all-student cleaning company – she was able to touch the lives of hundreds of college students and hundreds more clients. She has helped these students work their way through school, but she also created a culture that helps them develop important life and leadership skills. Today, Kristen spends her time helping leaders, teams, and organizations around the world embrace their humanity. She has worked in just about every industry,in almost every U.S. state and several other countries, and in hundreds of virtual meeting rooms.

I'm back with authentic leadership expert Kristen Hadeed to talk about what drives her as she influences other leaders around the world. Kristen is a prolific speaker and personality people in key leadership roles are turning to for advice on how to lead by connecting with your people, whether they are your kids or your employees or coworkers. Kristen's book is Permission To Screw Up: How I Learned to Lead by Doing (Almost) Everything Wrong.  We discuss her newfound desire to pursue her spirituality, how she works to maintain relationships while traveling, I turn her own question on her of "What's something I would never know about you if we didn't have this conversation," and she turns it back on me as well. We cover her practices of walking, journaling and why she gets consistent therapy. And Kristen speaks to her journey away from everything having to be bigger and bigger and stepping back to pursue the quality of life, relationships and fun that she values. At the end I encourage her to pursue her idea of maybe gardening, and doing it poorly.  And a gift for you, Kristen has a renowned program called the Human Leadership Program.

The fact you are listening to this podcast tells me you are driven to influence others, and influence is leadership. So whether you want to positively influence your kids or friends or coworkers, or you want to lead a company or organization, you need some leadership skills. However, the term of leadership covers a lot of ground and has a lot of baggage that may not be relevant for you. Which is why I'm doing this series on Authentic Leadership and I've brought in Kristen Hadeed. Kristen Hadeed has a great story of unintentional leadership that now has her on stage around the world teaching other leaders what she calls, human leadership. Which I'd say is leading while being a good and serving human. Kristen was in college and started cleaning people's homes to generate some income. She got more requests and ended up hiring people to help and from it and ultimately created a company that cleaned student apartments and dorms, staffed only by students. But she made so, so many mistakes that helped her learn how to really lead people by connecting to and caring about them. Kristen's book is titled Permission To Screw Up: How I Learned to Lead by Doing (Almost) Everything Wrong. It's a wonderful book, which is why Simon Sinek wrote the forward. In this show Kristen and I discuss what authentic leadership is and can be. And we get into talking about not only the value of trying and failing, but the necessity if you are doing anything worthwhile. Kristen is a bright light and we resonated so much we intend to do more work together. And a gift for you, Kristen has a renowned program called the Human Leadership Program.

In 2009, at the age of 20, Kristen Hadeed started Student Maid, an all-student cleaning company that grew to employ more than 400 college students in two cities. In 2021, she took the lessons learned from that experience and moved fully into leadership development.  This was our first interview with Kristen, originally from 2016, but she had a prescient insight into the causes of today's "Great Recession." She has been part of a growing generation of leaders who are helping to highlight the sense of meaning and purpose that millennials are looking for in their work. In other words, like everybody else, they simply want to know that who they are and what they do matters.  

In this episode, Rachel and Stuart's discussion builds off of the major themes of Kristen Hadeed's 2017 book, Permission to Screw up:  How I Learned to Lead by Doing (Almost) Everything Wrong.     Key Moments:•   Rachel discusses how the book's assertion that leadership is, and should be, difficult was reassuring to her as a young manager  •   Screw up, reflect, learn from multiple sources, and grow•   Stuart and Rachel discuss the importance of mentorship and peer groups•   Rachel and Stuart discuss how one of Ms. Hadeed's greatest “strengths” was also one of her greatest “weaknesses”  (sound familiar?  C'mon, you have heard that somewhere before, haven't you?)Click here to purchase Permission to Screw upFor additional management resources and information, please visit us at:  https://managementworksmedia.com You can email us at:  managementworks@managementworksmedia.com If you would like to help keep our show running through a donation of your choosing, please visit our Patreon page. As an Amazon affiliate, Management Works earns from qualifying purchases. Support the show

Relaxing lakeside is not an option while reading Riley Sager's latest, THE HOUSE ACROSS THE LAKE. His latest twisty, creepy, suspenseful novel takes readers away to a family vacation home in Vermont where actress Casey Fletcher can hide out after the loss of her husband and a very public meltdown. The arrival of a high-profile couple who bought the house across the lake, Katherine and Tom Royce, changes things for Casey in ways she'd never expect. Riley returns to the podcast to talk about the lake view that inspired the novel, heading out on tour for the first time since the pandemic, and why as the writer of scary stories he prefers his entertainment on the funny side. Olivia and Riley find they have something deep in common: a love for the Peacock series Girls5eva.  THE HOUSE ACROSS THE LAKE is released June 21, 2022 by Dutton Books, and the author will be at Poisoned Pen in Scottsdale at 7pm that night.

In this episode, we talk about a team that everyone felt was “high performing”. However, when Kamal joined he started to notice that something was off. The team members themselves had started to feel the “burden” of being seen as high performing. At the same time, Kamal was working with another team that was not considered to be high performing, and the contrast became evident: the “high performing” team had started to fear taking risks. This is when the job of the Scrum Master is so important: how to help teams work through their fear of taking risks!

Kristen Hadeed imagines a world in which all organizations have cultures that empower people to keep climbing toward the best version of themselves every day. As the young leader of Student Maid, a successful cleaning company that hires students, Kristen has fostered a unique perspective on leadership, organizational culture and engaging the next generation. In October 2017, she published her first book, "Permission To Screw Up," in which she tells the stories of her biggest mistakes in leadership. She hopes to inspire other leaders to share their "perfectly imperfect" stories of success to empower people with the knowledge that even if they screw up, they can still make it. Kristen and Student Maid have been featured in news outlets including PBS, FOX, Inc., TIME and Forbes. Her first TED Talk has received more than two million hits on YouTube.

In this episode, we share an interview taken from SHI's new weekly on-line meet-up called MEMO.  The interview is with best selling author and award-winning entrepreneur, Kristen Hadeed.  Host Wesley Deese and special co-host Jennifer Cassidy sit down with Kristen to discuss her journey and leadership lessons she has gained from operating a cleaning company that employs nearly 500 students every year and was the inspiration for her book. Wes then sits down with 3 of SHI's Ambassadors (Erin Shay, Randy Paulissen, and Maria Filippone) to get discuss their take-a-ways from the interview and how they are implementing them with their teams. This episode is sponsored by Carter-Young.

Kristen Hadeed is the founder of Student Maid, a successful cleaning company that has employed thousands of students over the last decade that is known for building the next generation of leaders. In this episode, Kristen, an optimist of Simon Sinek's community, discussed how our co-founder Tony Hsieh had changed the way she viewed culture as a young entrepreneur. Listen in to hear what “strong” and “good” leadership looks like for our time. Learn from her how to be more human as a leader, how to create organizations that are more human, and all her ups and downs in her business building and leadership development journey.**This episode was recorded in late October 2019. When Kristen started her journey, she had no idea what she was in for: The average turnover rate in the cleaning industry is 75%, and profit margins hover around just 15%. But even with the odds stacked against her, she built a company that blew the industry benchmarks out of the water. Her people love coming to work, they stick around for years, and some have even turned down dream jobs to join the executive team and build careers at Student Maid.Kristen believes Student Maid's success boils down to one thing and one thing only: creating a place with humanity at its core. A place where people feel accepted for who they are, where they are encouraged to fail and embrace their imperfections, and where they are empowered to reach their potential. Now she spends most of her time helping leaders and organizations around the world create similar environments for their people.In 2017, she published her first book, Permission To Screw Up, in which she offers an unapologetic account of her biggest mistakes in leadership. She hopes that her vulnerability will give others the courage to open up about their own “perfectly imperfect” moments and proudly embrace them as the tremendous learning opportunities they are.Kristen and Student Maid have been featured in news outlets including PBS, FOX, Inc., NBC, TIME, and Forbes. Her first TED Talk has more than three million views on YouTube.

In this episode, Kristen Hadeed talks about the importance of normalizing our humanity by reframing our relationship and narrative with failure. We also discuss the value of sharing our stories and creating a resiliency resume, being more intentional to set boundaries and tend to what we need to show up as our best, and setting intentions for how we show up so we can give others the gift of our full presence. I always walk away from any interaction with Kristen feeling grounded, more human and encouraged, and I know you'll find hope, wisdom and some useful practices you can put into place to support you in showing up as your authentic, best self!

Her first TED Talk has more than three million views on YouTube.    Key Takeaways [4:10] In college, Kristen got a cleaning contract and within 3 days, 45 of the 60 people she hired walked off the job. She had no idea she was such a bad leader, but it was a defining moment for her to change. [6:25] Instead of blaming others, Kristen took an introspective approach. That’s because she grew up in a household where failure is learning. [9:55] People don’t trust people who are perfect. [11:25] When Kristen was writing her book, she realized she had a fear of failure as well as a fear of success. [14:20] If you keep people in bubble wrap to prevent them from making mistakes, the business will not be able to grow. [14:50] Kristen defines “empowering” as trusting in someone before they’ve proven it. It’s about believing in someone’s potential. [17:50] Kristen puts the responsibility on her staff to own their own performance plan and to take accountability for their actions. [22:05] Kristen focuses on building leaders not simply hiring people to join a cleaning company.  [25:20] Companies are hesitant to invest in their low-level employees if they know they’re just going to move on. Kristen invests in her employees because she cares about the people. [25:50] People do so much for our organizations, so it’s only natural we give back and. [26:50] Kristen used to be so focused on retention, but has since shifted her focus to investing in people. [28:25] Empathy is really about hearing people, seeing them, and validating their feelings. [30:35] The pandemic has been an excellent time for Kristen to reflect on her priorities as she now feels like she was on autopilot before. [34:00] Kristen always ends her day on a daily reflection, so that she can both learn from the good and the bad that happened throughout her day. [38:30] Listener challenge: When we look back on this time, what do you want to say about it? Live a proud life.   Quotable Quotes “If you’re always trying to be perfect, you’re never going to take risks.” “In our effort to appear perfect, we lose a lot of trust.” “When human beings are in the equation, there’s probably some screwing up that’s going to happen.”   Resources Mentioned Website: Kristenhadeed.com & book resources Permission to Screw Up: How I Learned to Lead by Doing (Almost) Everything Wrong, by Kristen Hadeed Kristen on LinkedIn Kristen on Facebook Kristen on Instagram Kristen on Twitter The Now Habit, by Neil Fiore Why is Everyone Smiling?

Marcel Schwantes reflects on the biggest lessons he learned in 2019 from his guests about being a better leader. His mission to spread the Love In Action message is the Why behind this podcast, and the reason he spends most of his time interviewing the world's top leaders and influencers as well as writing, speaking and coaching leaders.  Marcel once landed in the ER because of stress due to toxic work conditions. [3:15] What if you really connected with your co-workers at work? What if you felt safe to experiment and fail and not feel ashamed? What if you worked alongside others who share your values and you achieved great things together? If people came to work and felt those positive things, the dynamic in the workplace would be radically different. [4:00] Businesses that truly put people first are more profitable. Love in action shows up at every leadership level. Marcel stresses that it’s your duty as a leader to take care of your people. Amazing things happen for your business when you do. [4:45] Marcel shares his top 10 takeaways for 2019, including: Erica Keswin in episode 2 - The ability to connect on a human level, experience emotions and display the best of our humanity are going to become the clear differentiators in this age of technology. [6:18] Ken Blanchard in episode 3 - The key to creating a great organization is to catch people doing things right so you can praise, encourage and celebrate them. When you do this you're reinforcing those right behaviors systematically and you’re showing unconditional love. [7:01] Steve Farber in episode 26 - When love is baked into the employee experience, the customer experience is gonna be off the charts. Your customers are going to reciprocate with loyalty and referrals. That's the impact of love all the way around. [9:00] Kristen Hadeed in episode 18 - The more you invest in people the more engaged they are on the job because they know that the organization cares about them. That does something to a person's heart. Bob Chapman in episode 5 - Business can be the most powerful force for good in the world if we simply cared about the people we have the opportunity to lead.

Today, Marcel Schwantes talks to Kristen Hadeed, founder of Student Maid, a cleaning company that has employed thousands of students all around the world. This is a challenging industry, but Kristen blew industry standards out of the water with her innovative ideas, company culture and by focusing on love.  Marcel and Kristen talk about some of the challenges of running a company, and what Kristen does to keep positive and motivated throughout the day. They recommend a book and strategy that can help you transform your feelings about your life. [02:50]We don’t always end up where we think we’re going to! Kristen talks about her company, Student Maid, how she came up with the idea, and what role a pair of jeans played in building her business empire. [04:30]If you’ve run a business, you’ve experienced staff turnover - but Kristen had to deal with 45 out of a team of 60 walking out on no notice. She talks about what she didn’t know going into her business, and how she became obsessed with becoming a leader people wanted to follow. She and Marcel talk about what leadership is, and how to let go of the ‘standard’ definition. [7:30]In a world where retention is the gold standard, Kristen supports her people leaving to do other things. She actively shares her knowledge with people, and formally trains her employees on the kinds of skills they’ll need throughout their careers. [12:25]Cleaning is NOT an easy (or always pleasant) job, but Kristen’s team is motivated to do it. Marcel wonders about the different generations she works with, and she talks about her outlook on what makes people tick - regardless of when they were born. [16:30]Marcel notes that vulnerability is a word that scares a lot of leaders. Kristen shares what it means to her, and the different ways you can practice it to connect with your people. Often, that means making mistakes and Kristen talks about her most epic screw up, and what she learned because of it. [21:00]Compassion is being considered more and more important in professional relationships. Marcel and Kristen talk about what compassion looks like in the workplace, and how to navigate situations where being compassionate isn’t the same as being nice. Marcel notes that compassion can take the form of tough love. [26:00]As part of the research Marcel is conducting, he and Kristen talk about fear and love in leadership. They get into what success means, being afraid at work, the impacts of experiencing fear and difficulties, and those wonderful times when you get to feel love at work. At the end of the day, Kristen thinks that having a team you can trust and rely on makes a world of difference. [29:45]Kristen talks about one of the challenges many leaders experience - and all dread. Losing one of your top people always hurts, and it can have effects similar to grieving. She also talks about a statistic that is tugging at her heart. [36:30]Marcel asks Kristen to talk about what she thinks will make a difference in people’s lives. She shares something she thinks is critical for every business owner, and other kinds of leaders should try to do. [38:00] ResourcesStudent Maid Permission to Screw UpKristenHadeed.com

According to today’s guest, much of what you’ve heard about millennials isn’t true. She should know: She’s a millennial herself, and she built a nationally-known company by hiring only millennials. Today the Guys continue their interview with Kristen Hadeed, founder of the company Student Maid and author of the bestselling business book, “Permission to Screw Up: How I Learned to Lead by Doing (Almost) Everything Wrong.”

Did you ever make a major mistake in your business? Meet a woman who launched a cleaning business while she was still a college student, signed a contract to clean 800 apartments, then had 75% of her employees quit on their first day of work. Today the Guys interview Kristen Hadeed, founder of the company Student Maid and author of the bestselling business book, “Permission to Screw Up: How I Learned to Lead by Doing (Almost) Everything Wrong.”

It's time to talk about learning from failure. I know. Learning from failure is no one's favorite subject. No one gets excited about failure, but y'all, failure is a reality in life and business! We might as well just learn from it! I have had a lot of failures in my life . . . and in Business Boutique . . . and in speaking. So I've gotten a lot of practice. And today, I'm going to help you answer the question, "How do I learn from my failure?" Three Ways to Learn From Failure 1. Adjust on the Fly When it's possible, adjust on the fly. A few years ago I was booked to speak at Catalyst, talking to women about life balance. Everything I wrote was directed at women and what we struggle with when it comes to life balance. I used stories that were relatable to women and I even pulled stories from the Bible, citing Scripture about women. On the day of the event, I stood at the back of the room and watched the room fill up with people, who were all men. Do you see the problem? I could have gone ahead and given the talk as if I were presenting to women. That would have been the safe route. Or I knew I could adjust on the fly to the failure. That's what I did. I had notes from a previous talk and just scrapped the slides! It was exactly the talk I was supposed to give, and they only heard it because I was willing to think on my feet. The lesson? Don't be afraid to think on your feet and make it up on the fly to save a misstep from becoming a complete failure! Related: How to Be More Confident 2. Deal With It If you make a mistake, drop the ball, or just fall flat on your face, deal with it. Back when I worked as the aquatic director at the YMCA, in the middle of a chaotic day, I made a big mistake. On the day of our mandatory annual aquatics safety training, my director called me to ask why my lifeguards were not in attendance. Luckily there were two options for sessions: 9 a.m. or 2 p.m. But I'd not only forgotten, I also hadn't told a single person they needed to be there. You know what I did? I dealt with it. I went speed walking down the hall to the executive director's office and opened the door. I looked her in the face and said, "I am sorry to bother you, but I need you to know that I have dropped a huge ball. I am taking care of it, but I just want you to know that I am aware of it and I am really sorry." I explained what I'd forgotten and gave her my plan to fix it. Thankfully, I got almost 100% of my staff to the 2 p.m. training. I failed but I did three things to face my failure head on. Own it. It's in our nature to hide, cover up, make excuses, and place blame. By owning it, you are doing the opposite of what most people choose, while demonstrating maturity, integrity and self-awareness. In the process, you're also building trust. Apologize for it. Apologizing shows you're coachable. It demonstrates humility instead of defensiveness, which makes others want to work with you more. Fix it. Doing your best to fix a mistake is proactive. People will respect your ability to try to repair a mishap when one happens. 3. Dust Yourself Off There's no magic lesson with this one. But here's the truth: You're going to have experiences you would never want to relive. There are going to be times you fail so badly it stays with you for a while. Many years ago I had a speaking engagement that I try to forget, and it haunts me to the this day. But you know what? It hasn't kept me from doing the thing I'm meant to do. I kept going. And you can too. Y'all, it's totally possible to learn from failure with these three strategies. If you can adjust on the fly, you might avoid it all together. If you can't avoid it, then deal with it. If you can't deal with it, just dust yourself off and keep going.

But aren’t they all? Here’s a quick challenge to help you prioritize during this season! First of all, know that not all priorities are created equal. But when you have tons of responsibilities, you need to have priorities and determine what’s most important to you. You need to know what comes first and second and third—and fifteenth. That way, when two things compete for your attention, you can make a decision based on your priorities. When you know what your priorities are, decision-making becomes so much easier. So, determine what’s most important to you. It’s your life. You want to spend it on what’s most important to you! They’re your priorities, and it’s your time. You get to decide. #AskChristyWright One of my favorite parts of this podcast is hearing directly from you. Give me a call on my toll-free line at 844.944.1074.

Kristen Hadeed didn't set out to be the CEO of a fast-growth company or a consultant to companies looking to fix their culture. All she wanted was a pair of jeans. That pair of jeans was motivating enough for Kristen to begin her entrepreneurial journey in cleaning apartments while attending the University of Florida. That quick search for cash turned into Student Maid, a cleaning company that hires students. In the last 10 years at Student Maid, Kristen has had some SERIOUS growing pains including a time where 75% of her company quit on her - all at the same time. She is an open book and recently wrote “Permission To Screw Up”, detailing the biggest mistakes she's made in leadership. In a day where everyone is craving Instagram likes and filtering every picture, Kristen's authenticity and vulnerability is a breath of fresh air. That helps to explain why Student Maid has become a successful company, how she got Simon Sinek to become her mentor and why other businesses are seeking her out to explain how to build such a strong culture. “It's not failure if you're learning from it.” Listen Here: iTunes Google Play Stitcher Follow Kristen: Personal Site Student Maid Site Permission To Screw Up LinkedIn Instagram Twitter Facebook Sign up for the weekly Millennial Momentum Newsletter.

"Things don't go according to plan and that is the plan." Kristen Hadeed unintentionally launched Student Maid, a cleaning company that hires students, while attending the University of Florida in 2007. Since then, Student Maid has employed hundreds of people and is widely recognized for its industry-leading retention rate and its culture of trust, accountability, and compassion. But Kristen and her company were no overnight sensa­tion. In fact, they were almost nothing at all. In this episode, I chat to Kristen about her journey and all that she's learnt. A few months into starting her new venture, with little knowledge of how to lead her business, disaster struck and 75 percent of her cleaning team quit on the same day. She's learnt the hard way but what she's learnt is gold - she shares all in this interview.
